BEARGER 1,830 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Been told that during lasts night commentary Butcher said words to the effect that Richard Gough always made sure he was suspended during the Xmas period so that he could go over to South Africa for a wee holiday. Anyone confirm this? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aweebluesoandso 290 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 I'm sure Super Ally cracked that as a joke a few years ago? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEARGER 1,830 Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 Just had a wee look on FF, some are giving him a hard time but a couple of posters are saying it was a joke/tongue in cheek. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,357 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Did hear him say something about Gough and South Africa but was not listening closely as BT seem to use crap English co-commentators and last night it was the usual anti Rangers scumbag and someone you would never believe to have played for us with his comments through the years.Butcher will never be a welcome guest as far as I am concerned. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) Jesus where is our sense of Humour gone. It was a joke. He also added I kept trying it as well but didn't get away with it. Edited December 17, 2016 by pete 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 What he did say that got on my goat was that the Celtic attackers would have put 4 or 5 in the Hamilton net by now (game time) when Celtic only beat them 1-0 at the piggery three days earlier. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,693 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) He did say that Gough always seemed to be suspended for the festive period but he was indeed joking and made absolutely no suggestion that Gough was deliberately manipulating it.

boabie 230 Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Butcher is no friend of Rangers, 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,613 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Terry Butcher was disgracefully treated by Souness when he left Rangers. Maybe that still hurts him. If so can't say I blame him but I certainly don't think he's anti-Rangers nowadays 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
